Konstantinos and Anatoli's 'Mediterranean Garden' Outdoor Greek Wedding by WedPashalis

Happy Friday everyone, how are you all? How was your week? Last night I went out and celebrated mine and Nik’s 15 year anniversary. We met 15 years ago and although it isn’t our formal wedding anniversary we do try and go out and celebrate if we can. Obviously the restaurant had to close by 10pm, so we were home super early, but we still managed to have a lovely evening and a delicious meal. So I really have that Friday feeling today. We are off to the cinema tomorrow, the first time since March. Dexter is beyond excited! We used to go once or twice a month so it must seem like a real treat to him! But before that I have this stunning Greek Wedding to share with you. Anatoli and Konstantinos chose an elegant ‘Mediterranean Garden’ theme and filled their day with the most gorgeous flowers, the accents of red really pop against the beautiful Greek backdrop. Big thanks to WedPashalis for the beautiful images.

A very special day with strong emotions, the time goes so fast that you don’t always realise what is happening.

Anatoli and Konstantinos were married on 24th August 2019 at Museum in Attica region of Greece.‘We married there because of our roots, the Greek summer atmosphere and the positive vibes of the place we chosen. We had 120 guests and it took 10 months to plan.’
